Here's my entry for Kard Krazy's Tag Tuesday challenge, which for this week was to make a Tag Doll. I don't have a lot of stamps that have large enough faces for a tag, so I decided to make a Botanical Contessa fantasy lady. The base tag is a 7 Gypsies tag that I distressed with Ranger's Shabby Shutters and Peeled Paint inks, and the head and arms are from Stampington's Blooming Contessa and Botanical Countess, respectively. I added some flower die cuts from Anna Griffin that I have been hoarding since my daughter was born (she's 10!), some Prima flowers, some Webster's pages ribbon. The leaf stamps are from Close to My Heart. The whole thing is colored with Copics. This was so fun, I just couldn't stop.... laundry is piling up. Gotta go! Have fun looking at all of the inspiring tags linked up in THIS post.
Your Botanical Doll is wonderful.
